Before you get started, make sure you have a backup of your game files in case something goes wrong. This ensures you can always return to your previous save file that works properly. Once you’ve created a backup file, follow the steps below to revive Kelvin in Sons of the Forest.

1. Open your Sons of the Forest game file. By default, it should be in “AppData\LocalLow\Endnight\SonsOfTheForest\Saves.”
2. Next, find and open the “GameStateSaveData.json” file with Notepad.
3. In the file, change “IsRobbyDead\”:true” to “IsRobbyDead\”:false”. Don’t forget to save the file afterward.
4. Next, find and open the “SaveData.json” file using Notepad.
5. Look for the “TypeId\”:9″ line. Below this line, you should see the “\”State\”:6″ value, which you need to change to “State\”:2″.
6. Still in the same file, look for “Health\”:0.0″ and change it to “Health\”:100.0″. 
7. Save the file and launch your game.

When you’re back in the game, you’ll find that Kelvin has been revived and is back in the game, provided that you’ve done everything correctly.
